Rory
Since when was Rory in this episode? Can you please find some evidence for this because I have seen it nowhere. Doctormatthew 9:28, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
Spoilers!
just found this clip: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECKMwGJNJLg It's from BBC America's 'Ultimate Guide' doc and it implies a few things about River Song in this episode, and what she already knows - Spoil a bit if you will, it's well confused me!

New Posters: If you make a post in the 'article' section, make sure everything is properly spelled and use proper grammer. Jedman67 02:17, April 21, 2010 (UTC)
I noticed that - I'd assume that whoever it was that went and changed the article (thank-you btw), they must have copied their spelling from the (now much older) comments on the link I posted (It was mainly Americans ;-)). I'd refrained from editing the article page because I'd considered it too much of a spoiler. There are no excuses for just copying someone else's spelling mistakes though. 86.134.188.188 19:45, April 24, 2010 (UTC)
Rumors about River Song: Source?
The following was posted in the main page under "Rumors":
- In a recent interview with Alex Kingston It is said that in Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead it is shown that River will have an intimate relationship with the doctor, meanwhile in The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone, it is speculated that she will be a danger to the Doctor.
If you've seen a source, please post it! Thanks! - Jedman67 02:11, April 21, 2010 (UTC)
51st Century
There is mutiple points all over the page stating that either River Song is from the 51st century and/or the the episode is set in the 51st century but where is the actual sources??? until reliable ones are shown I'm removing them. -- Michael Downey 11:51, April 22, 2010 (UTC).
It's probably just someone making a tie-in with the rumors that she may be a Time Agent, and they're known to be based in/around the 51st century. MrCatharsis 21:30, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
- The Doctor confirmed "it's the 51st century" when telling Amy that the Church has changed. Can someone update the page? 86.190.16.11 18:31, April 24, 2010 (UTC)#
- I'm terrible with dates and stuff. Can someone remember to add in the century 12000 years in the future from the 51st century (that's the 63rd century isn't it) when the Doctor and Amy were in the museum. Mc hammark 19:24, April 24, 2010 (UTC)
- Nope, 12000 years is 120 centuries (12 millennia), so that'll be 51+120 = the 171st century.
The Doctor did indeed say that they were in the 51st century when on the 'Weeping Angel planet'. But the Infobox needs editing. It says 51st century and 62nd century. The 62nd century would only be c. 6100--a 'paltry' 1100 years later; when, in fact, the Doctor and Amy were in the museum 12,000 years later (ie: the year 17,000).

Is she Patience?
In the episode when Amy Pond asks how she knows so much about how to fly a TARDIS, River says "I learned from the first one"...
This could imply she learned from the first Time Lord, which according to history was designated as Omega. This might also indicate she is Omega's (and the Other's) former-wife, Patience. Patience was last seen in Omega's anti-matter universe when it ceased to exist. (PDA: The Infinity Doctors)
She said she learned from the best, but that this wasn't the Doctor. What this actually means remains to be seen. Raven's wing 21:15, April 24, 2010 (UTC)
Amy Pond refererence to "sir"
Did anyone else notice that Amy referenced the fact that the Doctor never lets people call him "sir", even though (as far as I can tell) Amy has never been in an adventure where the Doctor has told someone not to call him "sir" or salute. Even if she has, certainly she has not been in enough adventures to know that he "never" lets people do it. Just an interesting aside.
Spelling mistake on set
When Amy is standing beside the door of the Bishop's command pod, there is a warning on the wall about a "Trip Hazzard". There should only be one 'z' in hazard. 86.150.251.215 08:30, April 25, 2010 (UTC)
Page seems to be fully protected, and has tons of minor errors
I created an account just to fix all the minor errors of spelling, punctuation, etc., only to find out that, despite being marked as "semi-protected" it appears to be fully protected, so I still can't edit it.
In addition to the typos and grammar problems, there are a two (minor) substantive errors:
- When the Weeping Angel appears inside the dropship with Amy, there's no conclusive evidence that it's a hologram, but the article calls it one definitively.
- The Clerics are referred to definitively as "Christian soldiers". But, while the most obvious religious affiliations are Catholic of Anglican, the episode never makes it explicit that they're Christian at all (e.g., they talk about praying, but never mention Jesus). The fact that "Christian" is a sacred name might mean something--but then so is "Bob", and that doesn't prove that they're SubGenii.
So, someone who has permission might want to run this article through a spellchecker (and maybe a grammar checker), pick a consistent way to spell "Angelo", pick a consistent capitalization for "Cleric" and "Maze of the Dead", and rewrite the bits about holograms and Christians. --Falcotron 09:08, April 25, 2010 (UTC)
